The Enneagram is a way into learning about yourself with depth and resonance. It's not only about the lens through which you see the world, though. You also learn how others see. These aren't labels meant to put you in a box either. They describe the box you're already living in. 

With clarity and understanding we begin to see our behaviors in a new light. We begin to see the unconscious motivations behind many of those behaviors. 

Why slow? There’s a lot to be said for slow. The tortoise beat the hare! We do enough things as fast as we can. When it comes to inner work, you need to take it easy at first. 

This is slow work. But as we begin we will move fast through the nine types. There's no time to waste, even though this is a lifetime's work. Whether you’re a little familiar or not familiar at all, we’ll take it slow and do this right. 

• Week One: Overview of the Types 
• Week Two: Wings and Arrows
• Week Three: The Passions
• Week Four: Using the Slow Enneagram as a Tool for Growth

Don't miss this 4-week course that teaches the Enneagram the way it was meant to be taught and experienced. This isn’t a cheap “know your type!” trick for cocktail conversation. This is a system for psychological and spiritual work. This is a powerful tool for serious self-awareness and profound personal growth. 

Each class is 90 minutes long.

When: Wednesdays starting January 29 through February 19 from 6 to 7:30 p.m.

Why: Because we never stop growing and becoming. Because self work is the gift that keeps on giving to ourselves and everyone in our lives. Because understanding ourselves brings self-compassion, and self-compassion brings awareness and insight. And this in turn gives us compassion and insight into the important others we live and work with. Because there is nothing like the Enneagram for sound psychological work and personal growth.
